Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, endorsed the vehicle, commenting "Looks cool" on Twitter after photos of Lil Baby and his Cybertruck circulated on the platform. Despite Musk's approval, some fans compared the truck to a Lego brick. One user wrote, "Yeah that look like a Lego car seriously am not even hating," while another added, "No shade but it still look like a Lego."

The vehicle also drew attention for a peculiar sound it made as the wheels turned. "Imagine getting all of that and then hearing it squeak when the wheel turned. Lol," commented one person. Another user shared a clip of the noise, saying, "I don’t know why, but that squeak was funny as hell."

This news follows a cryptic tweet from Young Thug on June 26, where he wrote, "whateva wham say goes." The tweet, referencing Lil Baby's nickname "Wham," led to widespread speculation among fans. Some believed Young Thug was alluding to another artist, Gunna, while others thought it might be a teaser for Lil Baby's upcoming project. Two days before Young Thug's tweet, Lil Baby had posted, "LOADING," with hashtags "WHAM" and "Sorry 4 the wait."
